Finally a date!

Woohoo so so very exciting! On July 17th, i got approval for my surgery and then today I got the greatest call ever!! I have a surgery date! I will be having surgery Sept 10th!!!! On the 27th of Aug I start all my bariatric vitamins, and my liquid diet. On that date also have my pre-op education classes and pre-register at the hospital. Then on the 5th I got back to the doc and meet with the surgeron on last time before surgery! I am so excited and it feels like such a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders now that I have a date. Let the countdown begin!   45 days!!!!

Waiting!

Let the waiting begin. Have a long struggle and fight with healthy roads( I was apparently not enrolled in the right program and hat whole going back and forth with them about whether or not what I had done already would count.) I am finally done jumping through insurance hoops. My stuff was submitted to Cigna for approval yesterday morning around 9am. Now I just have to sit around and wait for the approval so that I can get my date. I am back to looking at August/September for surgery. I am so very close and getting so excited. Oh on another note I am no longer getting a Vsg Dr. Glembot thought that I would do better with the bypass ( but would still support my decision to stay w the sleeve if I wanted to) so as of June 18th ( my final surgical consult) I am now a gastric bypass patient! So letting the waiting game begin!!
